Angel Hair Pasta with Sardine Sauce

This great idea of cooking pasta with sardine came from my friend, Maggie who really has much cooking inspiration especially when it comes to cooking one-dish meals.
I am not sure if this the way it should be cooked but there are no strict rules when it comes to cooking, so I agak-agak and came out with this. Looks great huh? ;p

Ingredients:
Angel Hair pasta
Sardines in tomato sauce (canned) - remove the bones and mash
Tomatoes - cut in cubes
Big onions - diced
Garlic - sliced
Salt
Black pepper
Mixed herbs (those sold in bottles)
Olive oil
Water

Method:
1. Bring water to boil in a pot and cook pasta per packet instruction.
2. Add some salt to the pasta.
3. When pasta is soft, drain in a bowl. You can divide it into serving portions if you prefer.
4. Heat some olive oil in wok and brown garlic.
5. Add onions and stir fry till fragrant.
6. Add in tomatoes and stir well.
7. Pour in the mashed sardines and mix well.
8. Add some black pepper, mixed herbs and salt to taste.
9. Add some water and bring to boil. You can adjust the amount of water according to the thickness of sauce (personal preference).
10. Cook for a few minutes and the sauce is done.
11. Pour sauce over pasta.

I like a balanced meal, so added some stir fry sweet peas with carrot.
The colour makes the whole presentation nicer too :)
Since my VIP dinner guest must have some meat, the other addition you see is fried black pepper frankfurters which I have cut in slices.

I think you can garnish or add anything you like to the pasta. I usually think of the colour of the ingredients and its texture when considering the combination.

VIP guest said it's yummy, so thanks to Maggie for the idea!
This is really easy to cook and the preparation + cooking time is only 45min including the "side dishes".
